Maybe the most frequent question I have been asked since we told the world we were Full Timing was “where are you going first?” And we don’t know.

A big part of that is we don’t know when we will get to leave so we can’t start making reservations. And we will be joining some memberships that don’t really make sense to join until we know when we are leaving. So there are practical reasons why we don’t know yet.

But honestly, I don’t plan on always knowing weeks or months out where we will be. Part of doing this is adding some spontaneity into our life. We have started to throw down pins on a digital map of places we want to see around the country. But the order we do it in and all the little stops along the way isn’t set in stone.

I have no doubt that we will have more structure planned than some do, that’s the wife’s nature. But part of the trip is the trip itself. I’m looking forward to it as much as any single destination outside Alaska.

We want to meet people and caravan with similar families. We want our kids to have a social life and playtime and friends. And we have to be intentional about those things by being intentionally flexible. It will be good for us. 

So no, we aren’t sure about where we are going first. But we know we are going. Soon. And that’s good enough for today anyway.
